Services Offered at CBR Groningen

Theory Exams

The CBR office in Groningen offers various services regarding driver's licenses, including:

Before you can take a practical exam for a car, motorcycle, or moped, you must first pass a theory exam covering traffic rules, road signs, and safe driving. In most cases, these exams can be taken in Dutch or English. For other languages, an interpreter may be used. Check in advance if you require a specific language, as availability for this is limited.
You can study independently or use training providers that offer theory courses. Research carefully to find a provider that suits you best and do not rely on unsubstantiated claims regarding pass rates. Once you have prepared sufficiently, you can book a theory exam at the Groningen exam center via the CBR.
It is often most convenient to reserve a theory exam through your training provider. This allows you to benefit from useful advantages and guidance. If you have booked a theory exam yourself, you can, of course, still prepare via one of the theory courses at Nutheorie. In that case, we will link your theory exam to one of the courses in your .

Practical Driving Exams

Once you have successfully passed the theory exam, you can schedule a driving test through your driving instructor. During the practical exam, a CBR examiner will assess whether you can drive safely and if you adhere to traffic regulations.

Issuance of Driver's Licenses

If you are new to the Netherlands and already hold a valid driver's license from another country, you may be eligible to exchange your foreign license for a Dutch one. The procedure depends on the country where your current license was issued.

Medical Fitness Assessments

In certain cases, for example, if you have specific medical conditions you must undergo a medical assessment before you are allowed to drive. This ensures that you are fit enough to operate a vehicle safely.

Driver Training

While the CBR does not offer driving lessons itself, they do regulate driving schools and provide information to help you find certified driving instructors. Again, conduct thorough research when choosing a driving school. Look for a strong balance between price and quality to ensure you receive sound instruction. You can begin driving lessons before passing your theory exam, but please note that passing the theory is a requirement for booking a practical exam at the CBR. Our tip: Do not wait until the last minute
